Starting the appliance

!After transportation of the appliance, carefully place it in an upright position and wait at least 3 hours before connecting it to the electricity mains, to make sure it operates as it should.

• Clean the inside of the refrigerator well using warm water and bicarbonate of soda before placing food inside it.

• The appliance comes with a motor protection control system which makes the compressor start approximately 8 minutes after being switched on. The compressor also starts each time the power supply is cut off whether voluntarily or involuntarily (blackout).

Freezer compartment

The first time the product is switched on, after you have selected the desired temperature, we recommend the SUPER FREEZE function is activated in order to cool the compartment as quickly as possible. Food should only be placed in the compartment once the SUPER FREEZE function has finished its cycle.

Refrigerator compartment

The first time the product is switched on, after you have selected the desired temperature, we recommend the SUPER COOL function is activated in order to cool the compartment as quickly as possible. Food should only be placed in the compartment once the SUPER COOL function has finished its cycle.

Navigating the display

Setting the temperatures:

If the product is switched on, the refrigerator and freezer compartment displays will indicate the temperature values set at that moment. To change them, simply press the - and + buttons corresponding to the compartment for which you wish to change the set temperature. More specifically, each time the buttons are pressed, the temperature increases or decreases and the level of cold generated inside the compartment is adjusted accordingly. The temperature values that may be selected for the refrigerator compartment are +8°C, +7°C, +6°C, +5°C, +4°C, +3°C and +2°C, while the values that may be set for the freezer are -18°C, -19°C, - 20°C, -21°C, -22°C, -24°C and -26°C.

When the “ECO” function is active, the appliance automatically adjusts the temperatures according to the conditions inside and outside the refrigerator, in order to minimise the amount of energy consumed; the activation of this function is signalled by the ECO LED on the keypad lighting up.

When the HOLIDAY function is active the temperature may not be adjusted, however the appliance adjusts itself automatically so that the optimal settings for the situation are used: +12°C for the refrigerator compartment and -18°Cfor the freezer compartment. The activation of this function is indicated by the HOLIDAY LED lighting up.

To activate and deactivate the functions, simply press the relevant button; the function status will be signalled by the corresponding LED on the keypad switching on or off.

Several of the functions (SUPER COOL, SUPER FREEZE, ICE PARTY, ECO) are incompatible with others (HOLIDAY,...); remember that there is a pre- established order of priority which will help you to operate the product in the best possible way.

When the ICE PARTY function has finished, press the ICE PARTY button to stop the corresponding LED from flashing and to silence the sound alert. The flashing and sound alerts indicate that the function is complete and that the bottle should be removed from the freezer compartment.

Child Lock

To activate the Child Lock function, press and hold the Child Lock button for 2 seconds; the activation of this button lock is confirmed by a short beep and the illumination of the corresponding LED on the keypad. To deactivate the function, press and hold the Child Lock button for 2 seconds; deactivation will be confirmed by a short beep and by the corresponding LED switching off.
